ABC News anchor David Muir has resurfaced\u00a0wearing a conspicuously looser bright yellow jacket<\/a>\u00a0while reporting on the Los Angeles wildfires \u2014 a day after being blasted as \u201cnarcissistic\u201d and vain for using a clamp to spruce up his on-air outfit.<\/p>\n

The host of \u201cWorld News Tonight with David Muir\u201d kicked off Thursday night\u2019s show with his flame-retardant jacket completely unzipped as he broadcast from the fire-ravaged Pacific Palisades\u00a0neighborhood.<\/p>\n

At one point during the show, Muir even opted to ditch the jacket altogether and as he walked the burnt-out streets wearing a black fitted sweatshirt.<\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t immediately clear if Muir\u2019s infamous clothing pins made a return for his latest stand-up hit.<\/p>\n

His jacket, though, appeared to be noticeably less fitted.<\/p>\n

It comes after Muir caused a stir \u2014 and a flurry of negative news headlines \u2014 after he fronted the cameras late Wednesday with the waist-cinching clamp clearly visible on his back.<\/p>\n

He was immediately roasted for his fashion faux pas \u2014 with many on social media mocking the anchor as \u201cpathetic\u201d and \u201cnarcissistic.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNice Jacket Bro. Glad you look nice and svelte with those clothes line pegs, while our city burns to the ground,\u201d one user wrote on X.<\/p>\n

Megyn Kelly, too, joined the critics hurling a litany of insults Muir\u2019s way as she ripped him for trying to make his on-camera fit more \u201csvelte.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe abject vanity of this man,\u201d Kelly said\u00a0during Thursday\u2019s episode of her SiriusXM podcast \u201cThe Megyn Kelly Show.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

She went on to eviscerate Muir for \u201cpretending to be a fireman\u201d while\u00a0reporting from the scene.<\/a><\/p>\n

Muir hasn\u2019t publicly addressed his now viral fashion faux par, but ABC insiders said some at the network were \u201cembarrassed and horrified\u201d by the gaffe.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis narcissism is quite large in the sense of\u00a0this kind of thing<\/a>. I like David, except for this part of him. Anderson [Cooper], [Chris] Cuomo wear all the [muscle shirts], but they would never wear this [during a wildfire],\u201d a source told Page Six.<\/p>\n
